4 Operation
Always test the RCD socket outlet before use.
To test:
a RESET – press the button marked R (for reset), the status
indicator should show red, showing the socket outlet is live.
b TEST – press the red button marked T (for test), status indicator
should show black. This indicates that the RCD has tripped and
that power has been disconnected from the socket outlet.
c RESET – press the button marked R again, the status indicator
should show red.
If all the above operations work satisfactorily the RCd socket is safe
for use. If the procedure is not completed satisfactorily do not use
the RCD socket outlet and seek professional advice.
To use:
After satisfactorily testing the RCD socket outlet the appliance may
be plugged in and used in the confidence that the user is protected
by rapid disconnection from electric shock.
If the RCD trips:
Unplug the appliance. Press the button marked R and note that the
status indicator turns red. Plug the appliance back in. If the RCD
trips again, unplug the appliance and do not use, it may be faulty.
Seek professional advice.

is not completed satisfactorily, or an appliance continually trips,
unplug the appliance and seek professional advice.
